Dev Cleanup Utility

Clean Xcode junk safely and reclaim disk space fast

Dev Cleanup Utility launched on March 12, 2026.

What it does

Dev Cleanup Utility helps Apple developers safely remove DerivedData, Xcode caches, old simulator/device artifacts, and other build leftovers. It shows what can be cleaned before deletion, supports safer cleanup presets, and helps recover disk space without breaking your daily workflow.

Reclaim 10–100 GB from Xcode caches and build artifacts. Scan hidden folders, review size, and clean safely in one tap.

Reclaim 10-100 GB from Xcode caches and build artifacts. Scan hidden folders, review size, and clean safely in one tap. Modern cleanup cards with clear Safe, Moderate, and Aggressive risk levels. Update and clean each target independently with instant recalculation. Open target folders before cleanup to verify exactly what will be removed. Cleanup to Trash, plus detailed Action Log and built-in cleanup stats. DerivedData retention, CoreSimulator modes, and preserve latest DeviceSupport. Some operations (like iOS Backups cleanup) require Full Disk Access. First build/index after cleaning some Xcode data may be slower. Dev Cleanup is built by a developer for developers who want a clean, fast…from xcode-dev-cleaner.web.app

    Hi there! During last time we (me and my friend) were building an app to clean various stuff after Xcode. I was fed up as a developer that Apple related things load my drive and I need hundreds of gigabytes just to do my job.

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
